The organizer's role in optimizing exhibitor ROI

Mr. Jonathan Skip Cox

CEO of Exhibit Surveys, Inc.(USA)


To retain and grow revenue from exhibitors and sponsors, organizers need to develop a strategic and consultative relationship with exhibitors by adopting a proactive, data-driven approach that will enable improvements in exhibitor ROI.

By looking at exhibitor performance through the lens of the exhibitor, organizers can play a greater role in exhibitors¡¯ pre-event planning, optimization of the tactical drivers of ROI and helping to deliver better results for their exhibit investment.

Learn 7 simple ways organizers can help exhibitors optimize their ROI, from providing them the type of data they need to make smarter investment level decisions to involving them in identifying the markets most important for them to reach at your exhibition.

Mr. Corbin Ball

Technology will likely change trade show industry more in the next five years than it has in the past fifteen! This session will cover the major technology trends creating these changes and what you can do to prepare for them.




IFA Part 1. Myth Marketing Concept for Trade Shows

Mr. Jens Heithecker

Executive Director of IFA
Vice President of Messe Berlin Group(Germany)


How do you create a successful trade show? That is the key question for all trade show organizers. The answer seems to be rather easy when written in a trade show concept: A show has to reflect current markets as well as the future of the targeted market. And of course it would help the exhibitors and attendees if all were prosperous in that bright future.

But is this the right approach?

Why do companies - including exhibitors, trade visitors and media - invest their money and, of course, their valuable time in a trade show? Is this because of a convincing and detailed trade show perception?

This presentation will show you how to address and acquire exhibitors in various and different situations.




IFA Part 2. The Known Unknown Trade Visitor

Mr. Dirk Koslowski

Senior Executive Manager of IFA


Along with trade shows, the number and quality of trade visitor contacts is one of the most relevant and significant indicators of success for the exhibiting industry.

So the main task for trade show organizers seems to be very simple: Identify potential trade visitors and convince them to join based on individual strengths and unique selling opportunities.

What often seems to be simple at the beginning, frequently appears in the long run as a very complex challenge:

What, if the structure of the identified and required potential trade visitors turns out to be highly varied and diverse? Who will be the driver or partner of a successful trade visitor acquisition? What, if a trade show is facing a highly competitive market environment?

This presentation is going to analyze specific trade visitor acquisition activities.
